Is My Child Gifted?

Just as every child is unique, no two gifted children are exactly alike. Psychologists, researchers, and experts who study giftedness have identified several formal and informal indicators to help determine if a child is gifted.

Following are common questions often asked when trying to determining if an individual is gifted:

  • Does my child exhibit the characteristics and traits of giftedness?
  • Are there specific domains of giftedness?
  • Should my child take a test or assessment to determine if he or she is gifted?
  • How is a gifted child identified?
